The Department of Community Development has the overall responsibility of assuring the proper planning and development of high quality residential and business neighborhoods, together with planning for a comprehensive system of open spaces and other enhancements to the Village's image. The department provides one-stop shopping for residents and businesses by consolidating the building project review, permit and inspection function within one Village department.

Changes to Electrical Fees Effective April 1, 2016The Colorado Division of Professions and Occupations, a division of the Department of Regulatory Agencies (DORA), will restore electrical and plumbing permit fees effective April 1, 2016 following a reduction in 2014.

The Division temporarily reduced fees in September 2014 due to the influx of permit requests and the resulting excess revenue in the inspection programs. At that time permit fees were temporarily reduced by 50% in the electrical program and 75% in the plumbing program. The Division re-evaluates permit fees each year, and sets fee levels to collect only enough permit revenue to cover the cost of quality, timely inspections for customers. Effective April 1, 2016, permit fees will be restored to the 2014 levels prior to the reduction. Questions?
